Atomically Precise Molecules (APM)
Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-141
The Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program, solicitation DARPA-PS-26-141, is a 36-month initiative by the DARPA Multi X Office seeking innovative synthesis techniques for programmable precision polymers (PPPs) and nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. The program aims to develop scalable materials with strictly controlled monomer sequences and compositions, culminating in a prototype NLO material integrated into a government-provided electro-optic modulator capable of achieving greater than 1THz modulation. The effort is structured in two phases, with Phase I lasting 12 months and focusing on synthesis capabilities. Research limited to inorganic materials or incremental improvements to existing state-of-the-art practices is specifically excluded. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction for Prototype Agreements, with payments processed through the Wide Area Workflow system based on a schedule of milestones. Proposals are due by December 18, 2026, via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool and must include technical, management, and pricing volumes. Eligibility is restricted to U.S. organizations, and all performers must comply with CMMC Level 2 self-certification and NIST SP 800-171 standards for safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information. Evaluation will be based on technical approach, relevance to the DARPA mission, budget realism, and the capability to transition the technology to military or commercial sectors.

Sole Source to L3Harris ForceX, Inc | VAMPIRE Spares
Solicitation # SPRRA2-27-R-SP05
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is issuing a sole-source solicitation, SPRRA2-27-R-SP05, to L3Harris ForceX, Inc. for the procurement of spares essential to the production of the U.S. Army's Vehicle Agnostic Modular Palletized ISR Rocket Equipment (VAMPIRE) Stalker Weapon Systems. This requirement will be integrated into the existing Subsumable Contract, SPRRA2-25-D-0007, supporting the Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) FIRES Integrated Fires Mission Command (IFMC) Project Office. The acquisition includes a wide array of components such as pallet assemblies, MX-10 RSTA sensors, COFIN and PDB assemblies, FANG box assemblies, EchoShield radars, and various ruggedized computers and cable harnesses. The government seeks firm-fixed, best price/quantity break range pricing for these items. L3Harris ForceX must submit a comprehensive proposal by November 30, 2026, including a summary schedule, detailed cost data in Microsoft Excel format, and a proposal adequacy checklist for offers exceeding the TINA threshold. Key compliance requirements include JCP Certification for export-controlled items, disclosure of any organizational conflicts of interest per FAR 9.5, and a value-added description if subcontracting exceeds 70 percent of the total cost of work. The contract is subject to FAR and DFARS regulations regarding covered telecommunications equipment and pass-through charges.

Integrated GOTS/NDI Systems and COTS Modular Enablers & Building Blocks
Solicitation # CHORUS26
The Air Force Research Laboratory Tech Transition Office, in coordination with the Information and Spectrum Warfare Directorate, is conducting market research via solicitation CHORUS26 to identify domestic US-only vendors capable of providing radar Electronic Attack (EA) capabilities for Group 2-3 unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The government is exploring two primary pathways: integrated Government-Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) or Non-Developmental Item (NDI) systems, and Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) modular enablers such as RF System on Chip (RFSoC) technology, high-speed analog-to-digital converters, and edge compute chips. These technologies must operate across HF, VHF/UHF, L, S, C, and X bands while adhering to strict Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C) constraints and aligning with Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) and OMS open standards. This effort is a Request for Information (RFI) for planning purposes and does not currently constitute a request for proposal or a commitment to award a contract. The program targets a development window of three to four years, with physical prototyping and demonstrations expected by the second or third year. Interested domestic businesses must submit unclassified responses by November 6, 2026, including a rough order of magnitude for costs and a technical summary of their capabilities. Participation is strictly limited to US-only businesses and citizens, requiring full compliance with ITAR and EAR regulations, with a total prohibition on foreign national involvement in any phase of development or evaluation.
